F
I love you more than any man,
F
But somethingʼs getting in the way.
A#
I do you harm because I can,
A#
For the second time today.
F
Victims we are not of happenstance,
F
But youʼre a victim all the same.
A#
Stuck inside a circumstance,
A#
With your confusion and your blame.
A#Dm
And when I get drunk,
C
You take me home
A#
And keep me safe
Dm
From harm.
C
When I get drunk,
A#
You take me home.
F
I ask you for another second chance,
F
But then I drink it all away.
A#
And I get bellicose when you react,
A#
For love, frustration and dismay.
F
I was so delicate when we began,
F
So tender when I spoke your name.
A#
But now Iʼm nothing but a partisan,
A#
To my compulsion and my shame.
A#Dm
And when I get drunk,
C
You take me home
A#
And keep me safe
Dm
From harm.
C
When I get drunk,
A#
You take me home.
FAmA#A#FAmA#
You know Iʼm grateful,
FAmA#
I appreciate.
C
But in fact itʼs baleful,
Dm
How I suck you dry
A#
How I suck you dry
Dm
How I suck you dry
C
How I suck you
Dm
How I suck you dry
A#
How I suck you dry
Dm
How I suck you dry
F
I love you more than any man,
F
But I seem to lay it all to waste.
A#
I do you harm because I can,
A#
With a joke in questionable taste.
F
Iʼve such duplicity at my command,
F
So I keep on lying to your face.
A#
Then I run away to wonderland,
A#
Disappear without a trace.
A#Dm
And when I get drunk,
C
You take me home
A#
And keep me safe
Dm
From harm.
C
When I get drunk,
A#
You take me home.
FAmA#A#FAmA#
You know Iʼm grateful,
FAmA#
I appreciate.
C
But in fact itʼs baleful,
Dm
How I suck you dry
A#
How I suck you dry
Dm
How I suck you dry
C
How I suck you
Dm
How I suck you dry
A#
How I suck you dry
Dm
How I suck you dry
